Fall Planting of Trees and Plants 



Our years of experience in the nursery and orchard 

 business has taught us that there is many advanta.ue- 

 to be gained by planting fruit trees in tht> fall for all 

 sections where winter climatic conditions are not too 

 severe. 



We do not recommend that fall plantings t»o m.ide 

 on land which is inclined to heave from the affects 

 of frost, unless plants can be mulched, or be protected 

 by drawing a mound of earth about them as a support 

 We especially recommend the planting of fruit and 

 shade trees and certain types of small berry plants 

 which are not affected by winter cold. We do not 

 recommend setting strawberry plsats in the fall sea- 

 son, in any latitude north of Washington, D. C. By 

 fall planting time, we mean any time that the ground 

 is not frozen during the fall and early winter mnnt'i'^ 

 and the air temperature is 40° or above. Should a cold 

 snap be experienced while setting your trees or plants, 

 stop until it warms up then proceed with your planting 

 until it is completed. 



In all late plantings, be sure to finish each tree as 

 it is planted and draw a mound of earth about it twelve 

 inches high, to protect it against swaying by winter 



winds. In all cases where fall planting is done, do not 

 trim or cut back the trees but wait until the danger 

 of hard freezing is over or do the pruning work in the 

 spring. 



To sum up some of the advantages from fall planting, 

 we find the following: (1) Fall and winter rains will 

 settle the soil firmly around the roots. (2) Tree roots 

 that were cut or damaged in shipment will have a 

 chance to fully heal. (3) By planting in the fall, the 

 tree or plant has plenty of time to become established 

 before spring comes and will get started to an early 

 growth. (4) In most cases, trees and plants will form 

 a good supply of young roots which is very essential 

 to the future growth. (5) Fall planted *trees will gain 

 twenty-five to thirty per cent more growth than spring 

 planted trees. (6) Fruiting time is materially cut down 

 and productiton increased as a general rule under fall 

 planting. 



CAUTION: Where fall planting is practiced, it is 

 absolutely essential that all stock be well matured and 

 fully dormant. If you are dealing with a reliable 

 nursery, they will not ship stock until it is in perfect 

 condition for transplanting.
